I've been to WDW many times, using many different discounts. Family and friends often ask me for tips on how to book the best deal, but I've stumped myself with this idea, lol!
I'm thinking about a surprise trip for the extended family, but uncertain of how to get the best price and make it affordable. There would be my Mom, my sister, my DD, my DS, DGS (4yrs), DGD (3yrs), and myself. That breaks down to 5 adults (by Disney's 10yr+=adult rule) and 2 pre-schoolers. We prefer to stay on property, so what kind of room do I book? Can the value suites accomodate our group? The site says 'sleeps 6', but we don't mind squeezing one of the younger ones in with us, lol! Is that allowed? Or, the campground cabins, same idea? Or 2 value rooms? BTW, does the 3 yr old need park tickets, it's been awhile since I took one that age, lol?
Then, once I nail that down...maybe I can score a discount (the reservation system is temporarily down, wink, wink!). Which discount would save me more, FD or resort discount? I know it depends on which way we resort, but looking for some idea. I'm open to different dates, depending on when the deals are.
All input appreciated, thanks!
